Nuggets Of Wisdom For Selecting A Local Real Estate Agent To Help You Stack Up 3-BR Cape Cods Such As 1311 Wedgewood Manor Way In Reston, Virginia

The right Realtor in 20194 in Fairfax County for you is not necessarily the one related to you, and might not look like the typical real estate professional. Your best choice in 20194 in Fairfax County helps point out the benefits as well as the flaws of attractive residences,  and is equipped to handle unique situations when they arise. Here's my nuggets of wisdom for locating the great Realtor for you when you're purchasing a townhouse with 3 bedrooms:

1. 
   1. Check out agent referrals. — I like Angie’s List because I know that Angie’s List voice verifies each review. You can also see if the agent or brokerage has any awards for client satisfaction. 
   2. Talk to multiple real estate agents — Take a moment to talk to me on the phone. If I can't help you, I can point you toward a real estate agent who is more suited to your needs. The real estate pro you choose should be able to clearly understand your needs.
   3. It's critical that you and your agent share a certain rapport. — Interpersonal skills are as important as professional skills. You will probably be working with your Realtor anywhere from 2 to 12 months, so it helps to get along with them.
   4. Find out how they search for. — When picking a real estate agent, ask how they search for places. Some real estate professionals have their own preferred listings that they favor. But you want what’s right for you, not what’s perfect for your Realtor. So make sure the Realtor is willing to search high and low to find the right home for you. That includes using the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) as well as their own personal network.
   5. Find out more about your representation agreement. — The Commonwealth of Virginia requires all licensed agents to sign a representation agreement before showing properties or having material discussions about a specific home. Be very wary of any agent that is not concerned about getting a representation agreement signed. Some representation agreements describe hidden administrative fees of $500 to $1000 that you must pay at closing. (Our does not.) Some representation agreements describe a rebate paid to the buyer client at closing. (Nesbitt Realty offers rebates.) You'll want to read the fine print to make sure that this rebate isn't pulled away at the last minute.
